兩種基本的流程類型

結(jié)構(gòu)化（“檢查框”） - 您可以在程序執(zhí)行之前定義和建模所有工作流程活動及其相關(guān)規(guī)則。流程參與者主要通過復(fù)選框來審查/批準/完成工作任務(wù)。例如包括：應(yīng)收賬款，采購，貸款，債權(quán)，T&E和客戶報名。

非結(jié)構(gòu)化（“動態(tài)”） - 你知道該流程從哪里開始，在哪里結(jié)束，但是中間的步驟很大程度上取決于誰問，問什么。流程的參與者主要是能夠靈活地分析/協(xié)作完成工作的知識工作者。流程場景包括：預(yù)算編制，政策制定，通信管理，活動跟蹤和項目管理。

實時監(jiān)測任務(wù)狀態(tài)

任務(wù)直接來自O(shè)utlook

任務(wù)分配表單是Out-The-Box

大多數(shù)工作介于這兩個極端之間，多次要求能夠利用非結(jié)構(gòu)化或動態(tài)任務(wù)完成結(jié)構(gòu)化工作流程。

在BPM的市場到處都是這樣的產(chǎn)品，能夠為客戶提供為流程建模，模擬，執(zhí)行和結(jié)構(gòu)優(yōu)化的業(yè)務(wù)流程的被證明的能力。

然而，這些工具都不足以能夠幫助您快速創(chuàng)建能夠執(zhí)行具有結(jié)構(gòu)化和非結(jié)構(gòu)化任務(wù)和工作流兩者價值的動態(tài)流程的應(yīng)用程序。

BIZFLOW ® OFFICEENGINE™提供動態(tài)業(yè)務(wù)流程管理

BizFlow ® OfficeEngine使BizFlow是第一個也是唯一的BPM套件，針對于結(jié)構(gòu)化和非結(jié)構(gòu)化業(yè)務(wù)流程的快速流程執(zhí)行。

BizFlow OfficeEngine可以讓您使用BizFlow采取兩種辦法處理執(zhí)行：

• 傳統(tǒng)的方法：發(fā)現(xiàn)（需求）→定義（模型，規(guī)則）→執(zhí)行（部署）→優(yōu)化（分析，改進）

• 動態(tài)方法：執(zhí)行（動態(tài)部署）→演化（分析，改進）→添加結(jié)構(gòu)（模型）→執(zhí)行（在結(jié)構(gòu)的/動態(tài)過程定義中部署）

動態(tài)方法更像是電子郵件 – 在已知的關(guān)鍵的參與則和重要的規(guī)則之外缺乏一個現(xiàn)有的結(jié)構(gòu)，但它有能力分配工作和適應(yīng)基于任務(wù)的需要。然而，與電子郵件不同的是，BizFlow OfficeEngine提供了結(jié)構(gòu)化BPM解決方案的價值主張：可視性，控制管理和責任性。

BizFlow® OfficeEngine™具有以下功能：

• 快速啟動動態(tài)業(yè)務(wù)流程應(yīng)用程序，而不必事先設(shè)計或模擬

• 給予用戶做什么，什么時候做，怎樣做的自由

• 允許“知識工作者”自由支配他們的工作場景，而沒有任何IT部門參與

• 合并Microsoft Outlook以便直接從郵件中開始工作流程

TWO FUNDAMENTAL TYPES OF PROCESSES

Structured (“Check the Box”) – You can define and model all workflow activities and their associated rules before process execution. Process participants essentially check the box to review/approve/complete work assignments. Examples include: Accounts Payables, Procurement, Lending, Claims, T&E and Customer Enrollment.

Unstructured (“Dynamic”) – You know where the process starts and ends, but the steps in between depend largely on who is asking and what is being asked. Process participants are largely Knowledge Workers who need flexibility to analyze/collaborate to get work done. Process scenarios include: Budgeting, Policy Development, Correspondence Management, Action Tracking and Project Management.

Task Directly from Outlook

Tasking Form is Out-The-Box

Most work falls somewhere between these two extremes, many times requiring the ability to utilize unstructured or dynamic tasking to complete a structured workflow.

The BPM marketplace is populated with products that provide customers proven capabilities for process modeling, simulation, execution and optimization structured business processes.

However, all of these tools fall short with helping you to quickly create applications that execute dynamic processes with the value of both structured and unstructured tasking and workflow.

BIZFLOW® OFFICEENGINE™ DELIVERS DYNAMIC BPM

BizFlow® OfficeEngine makes BizFlow is the first and only BPM Suite to enable fast process execution for structured and unstructured business processes.

With BizFlow OfficeEngine you can use BizFlow to take two approaches to process execution:

• Traditional Approach: Discover (Requirements) → Define (Model, Rules) → Execute (Deploy) → Optimize (Analyze, Improve)
• Dynamic Approach: Execute (Deploy Dynamically) → Evolve (Analyze, Improve) → Add Structure (Model) → Execute (Deploy in Structured/Dynamic Process Definition)

The dynamic approach is more like email – lacking an existing structure beyond knowing key participants and essential roles but having the ability to assign work and adapt based upon the needs of the task. However, unlike email, BizFlow OfficeEngine offers the value proposition of a structured BPM solution: visibility, control and accountability.

With BizFlow® OfficeEngine™ you can:

• Start Dynamic Business Process Applications right away without prior design or modeling
• Give users freedom to determine who does what, when and how
• Allow ‘Knowledge Workers’ to take control of their workflow scenarios without any involvement from IT
• Incorporate Microsoft Outlook to kick-off workflows directly from email
